Sarah and I made it through the last rest stop with minutes to spare. The staff had determined it was too hot and for safety reasons would be closing the route. Anyone still at the rest stop in 5 minutes would be bussed in. With only 2 miles to camp we quickly filled our water bottles and hustled out of there.
Compared to the day before it was chilly! We were happy to finish the rest of the day and get to walk into camp, an experience that a lot of Boston walkers missed this year. We arrived at camp and visited the Bank of America massage tent. Massage chairs with leg/foot massagers YES PLEASE! Five minutes never passed so quickly.
Our tent had been cooking in the sun all day. We quickly grabbed our shower stuff to clean up. Everything was like lava!!! As soon as I opened my face wash it poured out like water and was SO DARN HOT! I couldn’t help but laugh. The moisture strip on my razor was completely melted off and all over everything. The kicker? My deodorant was melted into the cap and I had to scoop it out – better than some others that to scoop it off the floor HA! (note to self – bring a back up of these it’s kinda important!) The adventures of the walk – never a dull moment.
